    Flakes Like Gawith

    GL Pease Stonehenge Flake is a collaboration with John Gawith. Maybe these notes on Tobacco Reviews will offer some insight: "Previous notes: Stonehenge Flake is a wonderful traditional flake comprised of bright flue-cured and sun-cured leaf from Brazil, Zimbabwe, and Malawi, with just a...

    If You Can’t Taste the Nuances…

    I'm sure many took pictures of their coffee as well ;)

    4Noggins.com

    I like to use businesses that I don't even know how the customer service is because I don't (or shouldn't) need it. My final straw with 4noggins was selling me tobacco they claimed was in stock, then weeks later after finally answering my inquiries, saying the delay is that it was out of stock...

    4Noggins.com

    I found 4noggins to go night and day different on me a while back, I assumed new ownership. I stopped using them months ago when they suddenly started taking far, far, FAR longer (than their peers) for a delivery (from Northeast US to Northeast US), and also went mute on the customer service...

    Lately I've been listening to a lot of the old Stones songs, from Exile on Main Street and earlier albums.

    Love at First Smoke?

    I've had a few I 'loved at first smoke' that didn't in the long stay in the daily smoke category for me. Three that were 'love at first smoke' and _do_ remain in my daily (or at least every other day) rotation are Kramer's Father Dempsey, Billy Budd, and Ten Russians.

    Essential VaPers

    Dan Tobacco Salty Dogs is my favorite (in fact only) VaPer if you want to try something a bit different. It's a dense plug, however, and flavored with rum so it may not be something you'd be looking for.

    Any Love for Penny Farthing?

    It wasn't so much just that it's a shag, but a shag Va/Per, which I didn't know of any so I was inclined to try it. Actually, I slice my plugs so thin and rub them out that they all end up being shags as well. I like the cut.

    Any Love for Penny Farthing?

    I had a tin of it a while back. I remember it as being good enough to finish the tin, but I didn't like it enough to buy another. The best part of it for me was that it was a shag.

    ***What Are You Smoking, September 2021?***

    Kramer's Father Dempsey in a Country Gent, while I figure out what to cook.

    Almost Off The Cigs

    I did Chantix back in the day -- it definitely helped, but I think I ended up addicted to Chantix itself -- all the vivid surreal dreams I was having on it was like a second life, lol

    ***What Are You Smoking, September 2021?***

    Enjoying a bowl of Old Joe Krantz Red Label (the one with latakia) in a Freehand cob while my wife is preparing the fire pit for later drinks and fire-staring. We may be getting old, but we still know how to have a "hot" Saturday night ;p

    How Do You Save a Blend

    I don't try to 'save' a tobacco I don't like. I do however, like to occasionally add blending perique to some burley or Bur/Va blends I already like.
